n-3 PUFAs modulate T-cell activation via protein kinase C-α and -ε and the NF-κB signaling pathway

We elucidated the mechanisms of action of two n-3 PUFAs, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), in Jurkat T-cells. Both DHA and EPA were principally incorporated into phospholipids in the following order: phosphatidylcholine < phosphatidylethanolamine < phosphatidylinosito...

Both DHA and EPA were principally incorporated into phospholipids in the following order: phosphatidylcholine < phosphatidylethanolamine < phosphatidylinositol/phosphatidylserine. Furthermore, two isoforms of phospholipase A2 (i.e., calcium-dependent and calcium-independent) were implicated in the release of DHA and EPA, respectively, during activation of these cells.

The two n-3 PUFAs also inhibited the nuclear translocation of nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) and the transcription of the interleukin-2 (IL-2) gene in PMA-activated Jurkat T-cells.Together, these results demonstrate that DHA and EPA, being released by two isoforms of phospholipase A2, modulate IL-2 gene expression by exerting their action on two PKC isoforms and NF-κB in Jurkat T-cells.http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0022227520340104fatty acidsmitogen-activated protein kinasepolyunsaturated fatty acidsnuclear factor κB
